Getting an ID badge should be one of the easier parts of attending South by Southwest, the massive Austin, Texas festival. However, for one Muslim athlete, that's not the case.

Ibtihaj Muhammad is not just any Muslim athlete, though. She's the first U.S. athlete to wear a hijab at the Olympic Games. While the Olympics are OK with her hijab, it seems SXSW may not be.

Saturday afternoon, Muhammad tweeted that people working at SXSW asked her to remove her hijab just to get a picture taken for her ID. Even though, you know, that would make her not look like herself when someone looked at her ID.

I was just asked to remove my hijab at SXSW Registration for my ID badge.. I can't make this stuff up #SXSW2016

According to Muhammad, she tried to tell the person at registration that she wore the hijab for religious reasons, but they wouldn't listen.

Even after I explained it was for religious reasons, he insisted I had to remove my hijab for the photo to receive my badge #SXSW2016

To add insult to religious ignorance, they then gave her the wrong ID — that of another hijab-wearing woman who works for media conglomerate Time Warner.

Thennnnn I was given the wrong ID! From now on my name is Tamir & I work for Time Warner Inc #SXSW2016 pic.twitter.com/TE3jJR16P6

Responses to her tweets included people apologizing on behalf of the state of Texas. And, of course, there were Islamophobic responses saying Muhammad was asking for special treatment and that people with hats would be required to take it off for a picture.

@IbtihajMuhammad Utter bullshit. A hijab does not hinder facial recognition in any way. @sxsw should apologize.

As of press time, SXSW has not released an official statement on the incident.
